Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams has issued a voluntary recall of its Passion Fruit Dreamsicle Ice Cream Bars due to undeclared allergens, specifically wheat and soy. This recall affects a specific batch, identified by the code 25-210, which was distributed across grocery stores nationwide.
The potential allergen contamination stems from a crunch topping used in another product during the manufacturing process, which contains wheat and soy that were not listed on the packaging. This oversight poses a significant risk for individuals with allergies or severe sensitivities to these ingredients, as they may face serious or life-threatening allergic reactions if they consume the affected ice cream bars.
Fortunately, there have been no reports of illnesses or injuries linked to this recall. Customers who have purchased the affected Passion Fruit Dreamsicle Ice Cream Bars are encouraged to check their freezers and return the product to the store where it was bought for a full refund.
For further assistance, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams can be reached at 614-488-3224 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST, Monday through Friday, or by emailing customerservice@jenis.com. This incident highlights the importance of thorough product labeling, ensuring consumer safety, and the company’s commitment to rectifying any issues to maintain customer trust.
